I would like to welcome you back to another semester of Dance. For some parents this will be your last semester of Middle School Dance and for others it is your first semester. My name is Tracy van der Linden and I am the acting Middle School Director again for our up coming Middle School Dance Show this semester. Our Assistant Director is Mrs. Crystal Madsen and we have the support of Mrs. Sarah Becker and Miss Emamjomeh.
Our show this semester is titled, When I grow up. I would like to extend an early invitation to our show on May 8 and 9 at 4pm in the SAS Auditorium.
Our second semester show is always a costumed show, which the dancers are very excited about. I have worked with our seamstresses to keep each costume cost to $60 and under. Our Seamstresses have been very reasonable and generous with what they will provide within this budget.
We are already into our second week of rehearsals and all the dancers have, or are, being measured for each of the costumes this week. Many of your children have signed up and committed to multiple dances. If for some reason you feel this is too many please contact me as soon as possible so I can adjust the costume orders. After Tuesday April 8, I will no longer be able to change the costume orders and you will be committed to the cost of the costumes for your child.
I have sent out an email with each dancer's costume cost. The cost of $15 for the show t-shirt will be included in the total cost. Full payment for your child's costumes will be due by Friday, April 25th, 2014. Payments can be by cash or cheque. Please make all cheques payable to: Singapore American School.
On top of the costume cost, all dancers are expected to own some dance basics and/or extras. These items if you don't already own them can be purchased through OKH Ballet (who give SAS students a discount) or Sonata Dance wear. The addresses for these retail stores are Tanglin Shopping Centre #3-19, and Orchard Plaza #3-9 respectively. You can also purchase items like leotards, dance shorts and jazz pants cheaper at Costume Connection 390, Victoria Street, #03-21 Golden Landmark, Tel: 6292 5529. When purchasing leotards please make sure you get the double fronted ones.

I will keep in contact with you over the next 5 weeks of rehearsals. It is a pleasure to be working with our Middle School dancers again this semester and I know they will put together another great show.
If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. If I am teaching or in rehearsals and unable to take your call, I will get back to you as quickly as I can.
I look forward to seeing you all at our show!
Kind regards,
Tracy
